Introduction
It happens that the shaft of a magic wand no longer turns easily or not at all because some debris has gotten into ist. It may help to put the shaft in hot water, but you will probably have to clean and re-grease it. If the motor turns but the shaft does not, the rubber coupling may be broken. This guide shows how to repair these failures. Bamix is proud that even very old wands can be repaired. Spare parts are available, for example in europe from Unold or Bamix.

-
This is what it looks like under the cover.
-
Slide out the two buttons and the small circuit board. The buttons are only snapped in.
-
-
-
The handle is fastened with a Torx T8 machine screw and a Torx T8 plastic screw. You will need a long screwdriver.
-
Remove two Torx T8 screws.
-
-
-
On newer models, the handle looks slightly different, see picture 1.
-
Carefully press the two catches on the switch module down a little. Then pull the module inwards a little.
-
Carefully pull the switch module out of the device.
-
Unscrew the Torx T8 screw and the Torx T10 screw inside.
-
-
-
Unclip the handle from one side.
-
Unthread the cable, the buttons and the board.
-
The motor ist exposed. However, it is not yet completely accessible, since the lower plastic housing part cannot yet be slid over the bell. The bell must first be removed.
-
-
-
First try If the bell can be unscrewed. It is fastened with a left-hand thread, so turn it in the "wrong direction", clockwise, to loosen it.
-
Pull on the knife to remove it
-
If it does not come off easily, then slide the lower plastic part towards the bell and clamp the motor in a vice. Do not tighten the vice very much, the motor is sensitive.
-
Use a long screwdriver as a lever between the bell and the shaft. Then carefully unscrew the bell. Reminder: the wrong way round, i.e. clockwise.
-
Pay attention to the washer between the shaft and the bell, do not lose it.
-
-
-
Using a Torx T15 screwdriver unscrew the two screws securing the flange of the shaft to the motor.
-
Seperate the flange including the shaft from the motor.
-
-
-
When reassembling, make sure that the locking pin is firmly seated again. However, do not press it in too deeply.
-
-
-
Carefully push out the shaft. You may need to use a hammer.
-
Make shure, that you do not lose the two washers.
-
There is a curved metal washer between bell and shaft...
-
...and a flat plastic washer between rubber coupling and shaft.
-
If the surface of the shaft is no longer smooth, e.g. due to corrosion, use very fine sandpaper.
-
Thoroughly clean the inside of the sleeve and the shaft itself, e.g. with cleaning powder for the dishwasher and a pipe cleaner. Lubricate them thinly with food-grade grease before reassembly.
-
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

Sehr gute Reparaturanleitung! Selber so schon zweimal an unserem Zauberstab durchgeführt und er funktioniert nach wie vor tadellos, auch nach fast 20 Jahren! Gerät und Reparatur absolut zu empfehlen!
Meine Welle wird immer heiß. Auseinander hatte ich den Mixer schon, aber die Info, wie man die Welle ausbaut fehlte mir. Jetzt werde ich es vermutlich morgen nochmal versuchen. Heute ist schon spät. Bin schon gespannt, wie die Welle aussieht. Anstatt 40 EUR für neuen Abtrieb. Also, ich werde berichten. Danke liebe(r) Autor/in)
